MGS2
Braid
The Witness
What do you mean by pretentious?
i dunno what game is the opposite of hollow knight
Bioshock Infinite, if only because it fails at what it attempts and isn't very interesting while it's doing it.
Earthbound
Superbrothers: Sword & Sworcery EP
The game has narration breaks that actually ask if you would like to go tweet about your experience digesting the plot
nier automata
Undertale
Nier: Automata
MGS (any)
Rdr2
The story wasn't all that bad, the gameplay sucked balls and the areas were lame and uninspired
It's hard to believe how bad the fucking writing in this game is.
that one
The Sneed Game
every jrpg
pillarsd of eternity
borderlands 3 that i just tried at the free weekend
Disco Elysium

I've grown super tired of any game that pulls any meta shit. It's so tedious at this point

DS2
>HUURR YOU WILL DIE AND LOSE SOULS AGAIN
>CYCLE OD LIGHT AND DAARK
>THRONE OF WANT
That must be new; it wasn't there when I first played it around a decade ago
Game is about nuclear bomb development guilt...not that hard
Unironically Death Stranding
According to steam I played it in Dec 2012.
So not very new
I think the problem is they never manage to make it interesting.
say what you want about undertale, but at least its meta shit was integrated into the story and universe and not just a random "wat if video game real" 4th wall break shit.
not Hollow Knight for sure
I'm going to work on the assumption we mean pretentious as in "having pretensions of being deeper/more meaningful/insightful than it really is" - in which case, as another user already said, the obvious answer for me is pic related.
I would've been willing to forgive the pretentious story, but the CONSTANT clash between the intent of the story and the gameplay just makes it so fucking awkward, like the game equivalent of tonal whiplash in a film. (Plus the game felt kind of janky to play, with an arbitrary weapon limit, unsatisfying feedback, level/enemy design that couldn't decide if it wanted to be a classic Doom-style FPS or modern cover military shooter and decided to do both and failed at both, bullet sponge enemies, etc., etc. - which makes it have pretensions of being a good game lel)
your favorite game
Yeah that's right. Take that.
Castlevania
Gone Home. I thought it was supposed to have some deep interesting story. The story was you're a lesbian.
Undertale for sure, still like it though.
fuck you, you're just mad you got filtered.
The Binding of Isaac
t. Asshurt hollow knight fag
